35- Yuwon Telecom (3)

#35. Yuwon Telecom (3)

Behind Deoksugung Palace, in front of a mansion with tall stone walls and roof tiles, which is hard to find in 21st century Seoul, a luxury sedan came to a stop.

Soon, Jin Seo-gyeong and his wife Baek Jin-hee, who looked nervous, got out of the car and entered the mansion.

Baek Jin-hee said while adjusting her husband Jin Seo-gyeong’s tie.

“Don’t be too nervous, honey. My grandfather has changed a lot too.”

“Whoa, great-grandfather must be a normal person. There are things my father did…”

At that time, a loud voice mixed with metal was heard from inside the mansion.

– If you came, you didn’t come in immediately, why did you stand like that?

Jin Seo-gyeong shook her head and murmured softly.

“Your voice is still loud.”

“Go, honey. Stretch your shoulders.”

***

“My great-grandfather, receive me.”

Baek Yong-gi, Jin Seo-gyeong’s great-grandfather, said with a displeased look.

“it’s okay. If you die and lie in a coffin, you will receive it to your heart’s content even if you don’t want to receive it. What kind of bow do you receive?”

Jin Seo-kyung said with a shy smile.

“You still corrected it. What are you talking about?”

“Jeong-jeong freezes to death. Now there is no place where I am not sick because I am old.”

“If you feel unwell, at least get a checkup. I will make a reservation for you.”

“Look, granddaughter-in-law.”

“Yes, great-grandfather.”

“Stop talking nonsense and start with business.”

Baek Jin-hee spoke instead of Jin Seo-gyeong.

“Grandpa, please treat me kindly. You are the only granddaughter-in-law.”

“Yeah, you said it well. My one and only granddaughter-in-law doesn’t usually poke her nose, but only comes to visit me when she really needs her, so why treat her kindly just because she’s pretty?”

“That’s because my grandfather treated me harshly.”

“Heh… I heard that a guy with farts gets angry, and you couple are just like that. If I think of Jin Seong-cheol only about him, my teeth will gnash. You’d be lucky if you didn’t curse at that guy’s face.”

“Grandpa, are you talking about that again? If your in-laws are in trouble, you might be able to help them. It’s not like you didn’t pay interest…”

“What about in-laws… Half of his company would have been yours if you hadn’t been so desperate to die if it weren’t for him.”

“It must have been my grandfather’s, not mine. Stop trying to make money now and help us. yes?”

“I’m crazy, so please be quiet.”

Baek Yong-gi glared at Jin Seo-gyeong and continued.

“Why did you cheat with your wife in front of you, so you’re acting like a mute who ate honey?”

Jin Seo-gyeong hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth.

“I want to bring my share in the group, but I need your help, great-grandfather.”

“Uh heh heh, where did you have your share in the Yu-Won group? Didn’t your father give me the stake in the holding company that will be your future?”

Jin Seo-gyeong knelt down and bowed her head.

“Yes, so I intend to bring some by force. Please help.”

“Arthur, if your father was a peddler who sold oil, I wouldn’t have known, but I don’t have to spend all my money on it now. And I’ve said it many times, but you’re not the vessel to lead a group like that.”

“I’m not saying I’m going to bring the whole group. It means to have the minimum power to bring even a few core affiliates. If you lend 300 billion won, you can create an opportunity to secure a large-scale stake in the holding company.”

Baek Yong-gi clicked his tongue and said.

“Tsk tsk, you’re saying that you’re not really bringing it, and you’re saying 300 billion just to create an opportunity?”

“Even if you fail, you will not lose anything. Trust me, great-grandfather.”

“So, what are you going to do with that money?”

“My plan is…”

Jin Seo-gyeong roughly explained the plan Ji-hyeok explained, and Baek Yong-gi gave a positive answer, as if he liked the plan quite a bit.

“It’s a pretty plausible plan.”

Baek Yong-gi could read the confidence different from usual in the face of his granddaughter-in-law, who always asked for help with a heavy expression.

However, it was not a bag of courage to hand over the money.

“What are you going to do as collateral?”

“I will use my stake in the holding company and the building in Yeoksam-dong. Together, they will easily exceed 500 billion at the current market price.”

In fact, with this amount of collateral, he could have borrowed money through other banknotes or other corporate bonds, but the only way to raise funds without going into the ears of Chairman Jin Seong-cheol was Baek Yong-gi, his great-grandfather.

Baek Yong-gi said with a slightly surprised expression.

“You bastard… you’re serious.”

Jin Seo-gyeong looked at Baek Yong-gi and spoke in the most earnest voice.

“Yes, I am serious. Please help, great-grandfather. If possible, cut the interest a little…”

“Shut up.”

Jin Seo-gyeong’s voice shrank at Baek Yong-gi’s sudden shout.

Baek Yonggi said in a low tone.

“who is this?”

“yes? What do you mean…”

“Who is the person who scratched your side? When you were greedy for your guts, didn’t someone stimulate your greed?”

Jin Seo-gyeong couldn’t bear to hear the shaman’s story and plan to work.

“That, that’s…”

“Can’t you tell me? who is this?”

When Jin Seo-gyeong was still hesitant to answer, Baek Yong-gi opened his mouth again.

“I wish I didn’t want to talk. I don’t know what kind of bastard put in such nonsense. Just go.”

Jin Seo-gyeong, who was in a hurry with Baek Yong-gi’s order to celebrate, hurriedly spoke out.

“Jang… great-grandfather, the truth is…”

Baek Yong-gi left out the story that Ji-hyeok was a shaman, and only told the story that he was a person who made a lot of money by selling land between Ilsung Group and Yuwon Group and that he owned an investment company.

“Uh heh heh, are you going to rob Ilsung Group’s pockets, and this time you’ll rob Yuwon Group’s pockets as well? Even though they are nose-nosed guys, I would have thought there would be such a guy among the guys who live in Korea.”

Jin Seo-gyeong helped Baek Yong-gi’s admiration.

“Yes, the distribution was unusual.”

“Uh-huh, I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but he’s really great. Listen up, granddaughter-in-law. If you want to grab something with your lacking bowl, you have to be close to a guy with a big bowl like him. If you’re next to the big thief, the bean curd will drop significantly.”

“Then… are you helping me?”

“Okay. I’ll meet you and judge how despicable he is. It’s a bit different today… Send it here tomorrow at this time.”

“Great-grandfather, that friend is not my subordinate. It’s a bit hard to say come and go…”

“This is why I don’t trust you. Do you think you’re just a money-lender in that plan? It’s a mission that can’t finish properly without you, so why are you so shrinking? Stop murmuring and go and tell me what I have to say.”

“I understand, great-grandfather.”

When Jin Seo-gyeong returned, Baek Yong-gi called Woo Sang-jin, who was acting as the chief of staff.

“Did you find it, old man?”

“Yes, Sangjin. Get to know the name and company listed here. Since it’s an investment company, you should look into the securities company.”

“Yes, old man.”

***

Meanwhile, Jin Seo-gyeong, who left the mansion, loosened his tie and sighed deeply.

“Huu, just coming here makes me feel good. Are you going home?”

His wife Baek Jin-hee said.

“no. I’ll go back in and make my grandfather feel better. You go and work.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes, go and talk to that Kang Ji-hyeok.”

“Okay then. suffer a little.”

***

The next day, Baek Yong-gi’s mansion.

“Chief Wu, is what is written here true?”

“Yes, old man. Most of the 200 billion won in land compensation received from the Ilsung Group was invested in semiconductor-related stocks, earning a profit of nearly 150 billion won. They say they are all cashing in now.”

“No, not that. It means that this guy is a shaman.”

“Yes, old man. He runs a place called Cheongdam Yeoksulwon in Cheongdam-dong, and it is said that there is a shrine there. It seemed to be quite famous among the wives of Jeongjae-gye.”

“So Cheongdam guru is not a nickname, but an unknown?”

“It seems so, old man.”

“Uh-huh, some kind of weirdo has appeared. Sangjin-ah, make a phone call over there.”

“Where are you talking? old man.”

“Soondeok, Jang Soondeok.”

“Ah… are you talking about the old man, Sundeok Jang?”

“okay. If it’s a guy with a real spirit, there’s no way Sundeok doesn’t know about it, right?”

“That’s right, old man.”

Director Woo Sang-jin immediately tried to find Jang Soon-deok’s number and contact him.

Woo Sang-jin, head of the department, who spoke a few words with someone, said to Baek Yong-gi.

“Elder Jang Sun-deok is in his evening prayer right now, so he said he would call back in an hour.”

“okay? Even though I’m old, I’m still the same. There must be no place here and there that is not painful… Let’s make some time and go down to Tongyeong.”

“Yes, old man.”

At that time, Lee Cheon-daek, who was in charge of housework, approached.

“Sir, a guest has arrived.”

“Is it a young man?”

“Yes, old man.”

“Okay, Chief Woo goes to work, and Lee Cheon’s family serves some tea.”

***

Facing Baek Yong-gi, Ji-hyeok forgot to say hello and fell in love with Baek Yong-gi.

‘It’s a typical shaman face. Does that mean he refused to wear shoes with a face like that?’

Not everyone becomes a shaman just because the chain has come down, but Ji-hyeok knew better than anyone else that contemplatives like Baek Yong-gi would have an unusual aftermath if they rejected the chain.

Baek Yong-gi had traces of the seven stars all over his face, although not as much as Ji-hyeok, who was born with the karma of a mansin.

‘Someone cut Lee’s seven-star string…’

At that time, Baek Yong-gi opened his mouth first.

“They say I’m a shaman, are you looking at my contemplation?”

“Ah… I’m sorry. By the way, how did you know I was a shaman? Director Jin Seo-kyung said that I hid my job…”

From noble mtl dot com.

“Do you think that my granddaughter-in-law is lax and I am the same person? They lend hundreds of billions of dollars, so shouldn’t we know who the other party is?”

Jihyo nodded and said.

“He came because he wanted to meet me, but wasn’t he the party to the transaction, not me?”

“That bastard, don’t you know better that it’s a bowl to pick up some crumbs thanks to you? In the end, it would be like filling your stomach with my money, but you can’t hand over hundreds of billions without seeing your face. And I have to check to see if you’re getting tired of taking advantage of my granddaughter-in-law.”

Jihyuk said with a sullen face.

“You are not wrong. Then check it out.”

After talking for a while, Baek Yong-gi felt that his tone was a little strange.

It was because she didn’t hesitate to say such things to her granddaughter-in-law, and for some reason, she felt that the man in front of her had an aura that made her feel like she couldn’t treat her carelessly.

‘Is it because I’m a shaman… I can’t tell the look in your eyes…’

It was Jihyuk who broke the silence.

“Do you have any questions? Then let’s get up.”

“Oh, no. I already know about your plans, and since you are a shaman, please look at my fortune teller. The view is also good.”

“Three thousand.”

Baek Yong-gi blinked his eyes and asked.

“huh? What did you say just now?”

“You said you didn’t need to talk about business, and you asked me to look after the fortune teller or contemplation, so isn’t it a business trip? It means that the travel expenses are 30 million won.”

“What… what are you talking about? thirty million won? Are you saying that I should come to borrow money now and give you a blessing?”

“To be clear, it was General Manager Jin Seo-kyung who said he would borrow the money, and I came here because a partner asked me to. And the elder is the one who gets 8 parts interest from his granddaughter-in-law, so what’s the point of me receiving blessings?”

Baek Yong-gi’s face seemed to blush a little when Ji-hyeok conveyed the facts, but he burst out laughing.

“Uh heh heh. Icheon’s house!”

“Did you find it? old man.”

“Go to the safe over there and bring me 30 million.”

“Yes, old man.”

After a while, Baek Yong-gi, who had put three 10 million won checks on the table, opened his mouth again.

“Here you are. thirty million won. My owner is…”

Ji-hyeok, who accepted Baek Yong-gi’s orders, knew at once how Baek Yong-ki cut off his sinew and did not get angry.

“Saju, contemplative. Which one would you like to hear first?”

“Let go of the four weeks.”

“Since I heard about the death of a demon in the New Testament, I am the one who will become a shaman. Since he forcibly cut the rope, the anger of the spirits must have spread downward, and he must have become obsessed with money to stop it. Sir, you made the wrong choice. If you wanted to protect your children, you should have given a little more.”

“What… what, what did you just say?”

“It means that the elders’ choices pushed their children into the pit of fire. Be kind to your granddaughter, who must have grown up sad after the loss of her parents. That is the way to atone for the son who died carrying his karma.”

“This… how dare you say this guy has a pierced mouth…”

“Would you like to listen to contemplation?”

Baek Yong-gi couldn’t control his excitement and shouted at Ji-hyeok.

“Shut up, you bastard! Get out of here!”

“I have been blessed, so if you want to hear the coronation, please come to my shrine. Enough then.”

***

When Baek Yong-gi managed to calm down his excitement and huffed up on the sofa, the phone call he had been waiting for rang.

It was Jang Soon-deok.

Jang Soon-deok said, calling Baek Yong-gi by his nickname.

– Money ghost, what did you call me for?

“Look at me, Sundeok. I will only ask for myself.”

– What are you so curious about? The guy who asked me to cut off his shoelaces because he didn’t want to become a shaman. If you have so many questions, you should have become a shaman yourself.

“Stop talking about the past. I heard a strange story today. I heard that I cut the shoelaces and my son took the blame and died. Is that true?”

– Hmm… Who said that?
